there were 30 suicide deaths in Chelan and Douglas Counties during 2012. She noted that 26 of those
were in Chelan County and 11 of them were youth, ranging from 14 to 25 years of age. She said the
Coalition was formed in 2012 and their mission is to help reduce the incidence of suicide through greater
access to information, training and resources, reducing barrier and stigma, and to be a clearinghouse for
information related to suicides within North Central Washington.
She said the main goals of the coalition include: Target segments of the community with prevention
efforts via education, outreach, and local meetings; adopt a community wide training model to train the
general public in suicide prevention strategies; increased visibility and awareness of the suicide issue
within Chelan and Douglas Counties; create a Post-Vention protocol following best practice guidelines
for schools in Chelan and Douglas Counties to follow when managing a crisis situation; Access to needed
information; reduce identified barriers within the community; and zero tolerance for suicide within our
community through prevention,efforts, training, education, and reducing the stigma.
